James,

Now that is an interesting one. BMB Ploughmate's did not have B and S engines from new, they had a socking great JAP 8hp and were "man killers".

I have one right outside my back door! In reverse, it will pick you off your feet with your arms over your head, and I am not a small person!

I would suspect that the throttle wire pokes through a hole in a flat plate on top of the carb. but until we know what engine you have in the B and S range, we can not help further.

------------------
Kind regards
Brian
